Baccarat is a popular card game in casinos worldwide. The game is played between two hands: the Player and the Banker. Each round has three possible outcomes: Player wins, Banker wins, or Tie.
To start, players place bets on either Player, Banker, or Tie. The dealer then deals two cards each to the Player and Banker positions. The goal is to have a hand value closest to 9. Cards 2-9 are worth their face value, Aces are 1, and 10s and face cards are 0.
If either hand totals 8 or 9 naturally, it\“s called a natural and no more cards are drawn. If not, drawing rules determine whether a third card is dealt. The Banker\“s decision to draw depends on the Player\“s third card.
Winning bets on Player pay 1:1, Banker bets pay 0.95:1 (due to 5% commission), and Tie bets typically pay 8:1. The game is simple to learn but offers exciting gameplay for both beginners and experienced players. |
